Roc Nation signee J.Cole and producer 9th Wonder are teaming up to lend their talents to a new project, the soundtrack of EA Sports’ next video game, NBA Elite 11.
The game will include a full soundtrack designed by 9th Wonder and title track “The Plan” by J. Cole when it’s released October 10.
Speaking on the honor, 9th Wonder has released a statement saying,
“Being the first artist to throw down the full soundtrack for NBA ELITE 11 was pretty amazing…I was able to mesh together the two things that I love in life, basketball and music.”
Likewise, his fellow North Carolinian J.Cole expressed similar sentiments saying,
”As a big sports video game fan, it’s an honor to be a part of EA Sports NBA Elite 2011. I thank EA for trusting in me to create the game’s main song. I truly enjoyed the experience.”
NBA Elite 11 will be the first EA SPORTS NBA title to have a custom soundtrack that has been created solely by two artists.
NBA ELITE 11 will be available for PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system, and Xbox 360® videogame and entertainment system.
It has been rated “E” for everyone.
